For anyone who is having trouble with button mashing in boss battles, I have a little hint. Great ape Vegeta made me want to snap the disk in half, but (I use xbox) if you don't look at the screen and press b or a or y or whatever along with start really fast the it should work. I beat all the big characters this way although it is annoying when the boss person is speaking a word per hour...

Yes, omega is hard, but all times you fight him, you have see his patterns. From my battle after losing a ton, in found out when he tries a combo on me he always uses square, thus he didn't combo me very much to get ki. Note sometimes he did change it to triangle but not to much. Second, after each combo you lay on him get your power up to at least one section and if at all possible to full because yes his power ball move hurts like hell so you want you power up to full so you can evade it or counter it. As you may know when he gets a combo you he get a lot ki so try to keep power up and counter his me lee combos. As for the recover question, I spam all four button as fast as I can to recover and when you see yourself teleport behind him get ready to counter again just in case his ki at two sections. Lastly, give him no chance to attack you especially in range. Get your power up to at least one more section and spam ki blast on him till you can combo. Sections mean the defensive gauge. Hope this tip helps. One last thing, I used hokum as master and used a bunch of special attack plus, but this shouldn't matter.

For those who ask about the button mashing for a counter, I find the best way to do this is to have your thumbs positioned along the (for Xbox) b-y and a-x buttons while holding your controller diagonally, and mashing them, it may sound odd but trust me it works, also if your fast enough (and te it's possible, I've done it) you can counter even WITHOUT KI, yes, it's possible.

The easiest way to recover fast is BEAT HANDS on SOMETHING it gets your speed up (not trying to do profanity either) get a pencil find counter and make some beats do this for about 2 days for an hour your tapping speed on buttons will be soooooooooo much easier like im dead serious but if your like me im double jointed in thumbs (all in hand) its just to easy if on xbox360 to recover tap Y button RAGE THE HELL OUT OF THAT ONE BUTTON and YOU DONT FUCKING NEED TO TAP ALL 4 SO WHOEVER CALLED SOMEONE A DUMBASS FOR THEM BEING RIGHT YOUR PRETTY SLOW YOUR GOT DAMN SELF but easiest way to lvl. Up in hero mode is World tournament best type to use is maybe light I used standard at first and got to omega next thing you know omega shoots needles threww his back and kills me so I rage quit restart with a light character in one day his ki blast one shot reaches up to at least 450 damage and that's one shot normal ki blast is about 280 damage but I got my ki like that BC I TRAINED AT WORLD TOURNAMENT ASK NO MORE QUESTIONS ABOUT HOW TO LVL. FAST WORLD TOURNAMENT IS YOUR ANSWER

How do you beat omega shenron in the 2nd battle because it's hard even i beat the crap out of himfor the first couple of mins. But he keeps using his dragon rage or whatever it is. it just keeps on killing me

When you face off against Omega Shenron the second time, use alot of combos. It's all a matter of trial and error. Simplest way to beating him is to dodge his attack just in time to get behind him. Don't forget to hold down the "block" button to evade his quick attacks. Strike after his last attack and start a combo with triangle three times. If he counters it each time, use square every time. Your first try should always be to determine what type the computer is. If it's more susceptible to knockbacks (Using triangle during the combo chain) or if it's more susceptible to quick attacks using square. Also be sure to use your super attacks each time you get them.

so i beat ulitmate tenkaichi story mode and i still had to make 3 wishes. so my question is, is there another way to get dragonballs beides story mode

No, there is no actual way to get the Dragonballs beside Story Mode.
During your playthrough of Hero Mode, you collect the Dragonballs to save the world. Once you collect all of them and have beaten Omega Shenron each time you have to face him, You will have to face off against Ultimate Shenron.

I know the button mashing tips when there is a button masher cover the end of you finger tip with a cloth and instead of pressing run your finger through the button forward and backward this trick always works for me

When i play online and i get into a combo whether its triangle or square combo (PS3) some players i go against counter these combos with no ki energy whatsoever.....How is this possible????? i bash the buttons so hard even against the computer and the only way i can counter these combos is by having my ki gage half or more.

I know that I'm late to the game but I am thoroughly confused. I got most of the way through training 3 & hit the "Recover" tutorial. I just don't get it. Are you supposed to button mash all 4 buttons at the same time repeatedly, rapidly tap one of the buttons or tap all four in a circular pattern? I've tried all of these and get nowhere.

Also, do you tend to hold your controller in a standard fashion and tap the buttons w/ your right thumb or do you use a non-traditional grip so that you can tap the buttons with your fingers more like a fight stick?

Thanks!

Well... in the tutorial mode training 3 :...! i think the better way to recover from a chain attacks..!! is to charge your ki up... until it reaches the intercept button...... then after that u can press all 4 buttons... bcuz high ki's can make you dodge attacks..!! and guard ... so with the low ki's you've got the harder you can recover!! !!
